Last night I have tried to pick up my LG G6 smartphone from my bed side table by using one of my hands and and unfortunately the LG G6 slipped out of my hands and dropped on the table by accident and made a quite a bit of noise after dropped as it is a hard wood table and it was a only a small drop(like about or under a quarter of the middle finger height or a quarter of a pencil height) nothing major anything like that. D:


Luckily the camera lens and the glass back did not cracked because most probably of the super super strong Gorilla Glass 5 and fortunately the LG G6 seems to be working fine as before so I might not damaged my LG G6 after all but I am not too sure about that weather the LG 6 is durable enough to survive a such a small drop on the table. :confused:

I am very overprotective over my devices and I am very careful using my devices!!!!

So I am really really worried that I have damaged my LG G6 by accident or it's just me being paranoid and overthinking things again as always after something like this happens to one of my devices. :(:(

I have only had my LG6 smartphone nearly a month now.

Just to put my mind at peace can everyone tell me have I damaged my LG G6 by accident?? Is the LG G6 very durable?? Or am I just being very paranoid and just overthinking things?? And LG G6 users have this happened to you and after is your LG G6 working fine or damaged and was the camera lens and the glass back not cracked or did get cracked?? o_Oo_O

If your dropped a 4 mm thick glass from that height, nothing would happen. the walls of the phone and devices inside are not 1 mm thick. Even if you dropped it from a 1 m hight, nothing would probably happen.

The G6 passed the MIL 810G standard test, so it's fairly durable. The glass is obviously the weakest link.

If you don't have any visible damage and the phone is running fine, I'd say you're good to go.

Seriously, how can you expect strangers to decide for you whether your phone is damaged or not? Only you can answer that.

If it had cracked from such a small fall it would be due to a defect in the design since even my drinking glassware will not break from such a small fall.

Perhaps you may want to upgrade to a new 2018 iPhone when released with Apple-Care+ for piece of mind.
